Great Demon Sun Wukong

Hearing Sun Wukong's voice, Xi Zhao and Rogue Heart Sword Hero dared not hesitate for even a moment, their bodies flashing again as they transformed into blue and gold streams of light, rushing towards Master Tongtian, who was currently being sealed by Sun Wukong's Seal Heavenly Stamp. This time Tongtian had suffered a major loss, feeling a bad omen the moment Sun Wukong's right hand pressed onto his shoulder, but how could the Genesis Divine Nation's divine skill be so easily broken free from?

Despite Tongtian's furious roaring, he was helpless as he was completely bound by five Star Drill chains, rendering him unable to move even a bit, and even the spiritual power inside his body gave him the sensation of being stripped away. It was then that Tongtian's body suddenly burst into a brilliant red light, followed by the appearance of the Burning Fire Stele directly inside his body.

Yes, inside Tongtian's body. His whole body had been ablaze with crimson flames, but at this moment, his body began to turn transparent, and the Burning Fire Stele, also ablaze with fierce flames, stood erected within him, seemingly trying to break free but frustrated by the complete blockade of the Seal Heavenly Stamp by Tongtian.

To play it safe, Sun Wukong's left hand flashed with yellow light, as the Three Thousand Barren Soil once again enveloped his left hand, and then he pressed his left hand onto Tongtian's other shoulder. "Nine Decisions, the seventh is for prohibition!" Sun Wukong uttered a low shout, and at once countless dark red mysterious runes spread like spirits snakes from Sun Wukong's arm to Tongtian's body, quickly covering half of Tongtian's body with the dark red runes.

By then, Xi Zhao and Rogue Heart Sword Hero had arrived, and without any hesitation, they both raised their palms and slapped them together, then jerked their hands apart, connecting a faint glimmer of light between their palms. Sun Wukong then severed the two distinct restraining powers from his hands and swiftly backed away. Find more to read at My Virtual Library Empire

Without Sun Wukong's spiritual power support, Tongtian felt the pressure of the restraint suddenly lighten and was about to let the Burning Fire Stele burst from his body, when Xi Zhao and Rogue Heart Sword Hero began to rotate rapidly around him. Simultaneously, the faint glimmer of light in their hands spun out like silkworm threads, quickly enveloping Tongtian completely. When Xi Zhao and Rogue Heart Sword Hero retreated, Tongtian had turned into a two-meter-tall giant cocoon.

"Monkey, it's done, your turn now!" Xi Zhao called out, then suddenly shook his arms, causing the transparent energy in his palms to thrum like silk threads, with Tongtian, trapped at the ends, being flung upward. At this moment, Sun Wukong's voice could also be heard, "Nine Decisions, the ninth is for spirit; Nine Decisions, the eighth is for destruction; World Suppressing Stele, stabilize the world, banish demons, calm the heavens, slay evil, end chaos, secure the firmament. Barren Soil, turn everything into wasteland soil!"

Words that sounded like incantations or perhaps sighs emanated from Sun Wukong's mouth. Although not loud, they resounded through the heavens and earth, making every being that heard these words feel the desolation and aged desolation of extinction. Even those with deep cultivation and a profound understanding of the Heavenly Dao couldn't help but shed tears.

As Sun Wukong's voice rose, the World Suppressing Stele Number Three emerged from beneath the ground beneath Tongtian, stretching upward, while high above, a thirty-three meter tall Nine Decisions Vajra Ape with deep purple mysterious runes all over its body descended from the sky, its fists raised in a smashing motion.

Then, to the astonishment of Xi Zhao and Rogue Heart Sword Hero, the growing World Suppressing Stele and the crashing fists of the giant Nine Decisions Vajra Ape collided fiercely. From the center of the collision, powerful waves emanated, causing even Xi Zhao and Rogue Heart Sword Hero, standing below, to feel a tremor in their hearts.

Rogue Heart Sword Hero couldn't help but shrink his neck, feeling pain just from looking. How could this monkey come up with such a move? The collision of these two formidable powers would be unbearable, he thought, even in his Radiant Armor. Moreover, why hadn't this monkey mentioned such a powerful move earlier? He had donned the Radiant Armor, fearing a bitter battle.

The violent shock and waves of power lasted for more than a dozen breaths before gradually subsiding. The deep purple Nine Decisions Vajra Ape vanished into thin air, and the Barren Soil Stele began to shrink. In midair, there floated a dazzling white World Suppressing Stele, burning with crimson flames, looking so sacred under the sun's radiance.

Sun Wukong slowly descended, and seeing the astonished expressions of Rogue Heart Sword Hero and Xi Zhao, he chuckled and said, "How about that, not bad, right? Haha. I'll give you two a chance, who wants to go fetch that Heavenly Stele?" Rogue Heart Sword Hero waved his hand, indicating his lack of interest, but his eyes were locked onto Sun Wukong, as if he wanted to devour him whole.

Seeing the look on Rogue Heart Sword Hero's face, Xi Zhao shook his head, and then a supreme chill surged around him, condensing into an armor of ice covering his body. In a flash, he headed for the World Suppressing Stele floating in midair. Although he was unsure of the fate of the Stele after Tongtian's death, it was better to take possession of it first.

Meanwhile, Sun Wukong felt his heart turn hairy under the intense gaze of Rogue Heart Sword Hero. Before he could voice his question, Rogue Heart Sword Hero's eyes suddenly sharpened, and with a few quick moves, he charged toward Sun Wukong. At the same time, he reversed his grip on the black Tang Blade, slicing sideways at Sun Wukong with the back of the blade. Sun Wukong raised an eyebrow and exclaimed, "Isn't this a bit much? Are you just venting your battle lust or what?"

While talking, Sun Wukong, despite his injuries, did not slow down in his movements. The Jingu Bang appeared in his hand, and instead of attaching the Three Thousand Barren Sands to it, he swung the Golden Hoop directly to meet the attack. In an instant, the two exchanged over a hundred blows, their weapons clanging, and far from stopping, their fighting spirit only grew more intense.

On the other hand, Xi Zhao stood there with a bitter expression. Although the Burning Fire No. 9 World Suppressing Stele lost Master Tongtian's control, it was not so easy to master, especially since Xi Zhao, being of the ultimate ice, had a life-and-death relationship with the Burning Fire Stele. So, to claim the Burning Fire Stele, he had to rely on brute force and his own chill to suppress it.

Yet Xi Zhao, who once held the top position in the Nine Great Divine Kingdoms and possessed the Destruction No. 1 World Suppressing Stele, knew the Heavenly Stele even better than Sun Wukong. Therefore, although it took some effort, he managed to subdue the Burning Fire Stele fairly smoothly, albeit with a rather forceful method, by directly encasing the Burning Fire Stele in ice. Encasing a fire attribute World Suppressing Stele in ice indicated just how formidable Xi Zhao's true strength really was.

Having subdued the Heavenly Stele, Xi Zhao floated down to the ground, and looking at the wreckage of the Myriad Spirits Palace and the severed limbs strewn everywhere, he couldn't help but frown. However, he did not express much else, and taking out the Supreme Order of the Netherworld World from his chest, he walked straight into the Myriad Spirits Palace to activate the World Suppressing Stele of the Myriad Spirits Realm.

Three breaths later, a white light soared into the sky. Sun Wukong and Rogue Heart Sword Hero, though consumed by a strong desire to fight, had to stop, because the light that radiated from the Transforming Thunder Palace's Heavenly Stele the last time had brought great benefits to everyone. Hence, Sun Wukong and the others certainly wouldn't waste this excellent opportunity, as it was quite useful for cultivation, even if they hadn't suffered any serious injuries.

As that white light ascended to the sky, a loud, majestic voice that echoed through the entire Patrolling Celestial World suddenly said, "The Myriad Spirits Realm's Myriad Spirits Palace World Suppressing Stele has been activated. The Myriad Spirits Realm is disqualified. Only three people survived. Starting from the next day, they have three days' time to launch a counter-offensive!" Similarly announced three times, the people of the Patrolling Celestial World were shocked, but they didn't have many other emotions.

However, they were somewhat surprised to hear that after the battle of the Myriad Spirits Realm, only three people survived. Logically, the number of people in each power should be similar, and with two powers eliminated consecutively, the Transforming Thunder Ancestral Realm was annihilated, leaving only three people in the Myriad Spirits Palace. This level of brutality weighed heavily on everyone's hearts.

It seemed that unless there was no battle, once a fight broke out, it would definitely be a fight to the death. The battle wouldn't end unless one side was dead or had completely lost its ability to fight.

In fact, out of the thirty-six people in the Myriad Spirits Realm, except for the two survivors from the battle in the Transforming Thunder, who mysteriously died after their encounter with the Myriad Gods Hall, the rest all died in battle. The remaining three were the ethereal Daoist who escaped Master Tongtian's possession due to his Domain Lord Level strength, and the other two were the Dryad Messenger Gu Lang and the Illusionist Huan Meng. They escaped death with their formidable strength and with the help of Huan Meng's illusions.

However, with the Myriad Spirits Realm's World Suppressing Stele activated, although the two had escaped with their lives, they could not escape being eliminated. Once the three days were over, they would be sent back to the Myriad Spirits Realm. Then, they would have to face the wrath of Ling Yi, the Domain Lord of the Myriad Spirits Realm. Originally ambitious because of Master Tongtian and the presence of the Burning Fire Stele, they ended up with nothing. Not only did they fail to triumph in the Patrolling Celestial World, but thirty-three of the thirty-six also died, and they even lost the Burning Fire Stele. Such a loss would be enough for Ling Yi to be in pain for a very long time.

At the same time within the Netherworld Palace, the ethereal Daoist first saluted Ming Wanjie and the Netherworld Five Battle Generals, then sat cross-legged on the ground and ended his own life.
